There are three distinct versions, 5.0, 5.01 and 5.02, each of which
might or might not have the patches applied.  Identify which you are
using and check that you have applied all available patches.  When
posting a question please say what version you are using and which
operating system is being used.

All 16 bit Windows programs use a module definition (*.DEF) file to
specify the stack size and possibly specify other things.  You have
not provided one so instead of failing with an error the linker used
the default one, DEFAULT.DEF, and told you what it did.

It looks as if needed libraries were not provided.  For example
GetDocTemplateHead and GetModulePtr are found in both of OWLWLU.LIB
and OWLIU.LIB.  If one of those libraries was not listed as part of
the project so not included in the link then the error you show would
probably be generated.

Other symbols such as _NextColor and _GetPlotWindow appear to come
from other or 3rd party software that probably have their own library
so their library or libraries should be listed as part of the project
file.

Here is a way to arrange to be able to find what symbol is in which
library.

Create these two batch files in the \bc5\lib directory.  From the
command line run 1.bat and for each library it will create a
LibName.LST file containing the symbols for what the library supplies.
After doing this delete 1.bat and 2.bat.

Once you have this all you need do to find out what library has a
symbol is to make the compiler's LIB directory the default and give a
command like this:

  grep -i "getmoduleptr" *.lst

--------------2.bat-------------
tlib /C %1.lib , %1.lst
----------------------------------
Note: do not overlook the comma between the arguments

--------------1.bat-------------

----------------------------------
Note: this file list is from tc++ 4.5 on my machine.  Yours most
likely has a larger list of *.LIB files so consider altering the list
to conform to what is on your machine.
